US hits sites in Syria as Gaza aid 'barely trickles in

 

World War Three in the making or Just Another Day in the Middle East ??? :cry:

 

More like Russia diverting attention away from Ukraine IF they supplied arms to Hamas before this attack.

but usa is against creating palestinian country , they are just good to kill 

Officially the US is for the two state solution.

I think Hamas is/should be against it. Palestinians used to be in favor for it, but now they seem to lean against it. The younger the palestinians get, the more they are against it, which might indicate that Hamas indoctrinated them to be against it.

https://news.gallup.com/poll/512828/palestinians-lack-faith-biden-two-state-solution.aspx

 

With Israelis it is pretty much the same, they used to be in favor of it, but not so much anymore. Arab Israelis are more in favor of it than jewish israelis.

Iran doesn't want a two state solution, but apparently they used to not be against it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran–Palestine_relations

 

Qatar on the other hand seems to be in favor of it.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/9/2/two-state-solution-needed-for-palestine-qatar-emir-tells-kushner

 

Other arab countries also seem to be in favor of it.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/11/arab-ministers-urge-israel-to-resume-talks-on-two-state-solution

 

China and Russia also seem to be in favor of a two-state solution.

https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/china-sends-envoy-middle-east-sign-ambition-play-104168797

 

Turkey also seems to be in favor of a two state solution. Turkey is in a very interesting situation, considering that they support a two-state solution for Cyprus but don't want the Kurds to have their own state.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkey-talks-with-hamas-hostages-nothing-concrete-now-state-media-2023-10-18/

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mideast-crisis-turkey-kurds-idUSKBN0P70QB20150627

 

So (at least) officially Iran (and therefore Hamas as well) seems to be the only player that is strongly against a two-state solution.

 

Here is how people in Europe and the US think about the current conflict:

I think one reason why Israel didn't (strongly) support Ukraine was that they needed russian "permission" to bomb targets in Syria. Will be interesting to see how the Israel-Russia relationship develops after Russia sided with Hamas.

    • First,  … Oriol Cardona Coll is the favourite in men’s ski mountaineering, with the mixed relay also favoured, and there’s fringe chances for Queralt Castellet in women’s snowboard halfpipe, Lucas Eguibar in men’s snowboard cross, and Ana Alonso in women’s ski mountaineering (she got into a car crash a few months ago, wasn’t serious thankfully but not in great form) depending on the day…    For  Bulgaria one of Zamfirov or Krashniak in men’s parallel giant slalom is what I’m thinking, but maybe Yankov can medal too (although his season has been pedestrian), Zamfirova in women’s parallel slalom also has a decent chance   For  Belgium, I think Kim Meylemans in women’s skeleton, the Crystal Globe winner, and potentially one of the Desmet siblings in short track…   For  Georgia, obviously Metelkina/Berulava in pairs figure skating   For  Latvia it’s all about luge. Bots/Plume and Upite/Kaluma in men’s/women’s doubles, Aparjods in men’s singles, and the team relay. Kruzbergs might also have a chance in short track but don’t see it.    For  Poland, in short track Maliszewska in the women’s 500m, and the women’s and mixed relays have chances, Krol-Walas in women’s parallel slalom, Zurek in the men’s 500m and 1000m. Easiest pick of them all.    For  their biggest chance is mixed team aerials IMO due to the lack of teams competing, Kotovskyi in men’s aerials and Brykina are other chances.    I actually don’t have  Brazil reaching the podium, Rocha Silveira hasn’t had the best results on the WC circuit, Burgener’s scores this season won’t be enough for a podium, and most of their hopes rest on Braathen IMO   Same with  Estonia, Kaldvee/Lill are a strong team but I have four teams slightly above them. 
    • fis basically only cares about alpine skiing (and despite that, they always find the way to make disasters also on it) if it wasn't for the North American tv money, I guess they would even get rid of those "freestyle" events, leaving them to the X Games organization
    • Last Olympics Canada only rejected a quota after they got to 8 female. Hard to say but they will probably take them.
    • A bit shocking to see Brazil with the most votes so far! They do have 3 good medal chances though (Pinheiro Braathen, Rocha Silveira, Burgener) so it's well deserved.   I also originally included  New Zealand on the poll but I must have deleted them by accident although they probably also would have gotten the same amount of votes as Brazil so it wouldn't have made much of a difference.    
    • Korea accepted a halfpipe quota so there will be a total of 22/25 competitors entered in women's halfpipe.   The good news is that women's ski cross will have 32 entries for the first time since 2010.
